WARNING - Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries are signicantly

more volatile than other rechargeable batteries. Charging and

discharging batteries has the potential for re, explosion, serious

injury, and property damage if not performed per the instructions.

ONLY use a Traxxas iD-equipped LiPo charger with this battery.

Never use NiMH or NiCad-type chargers or charge modes to charge

LiPo batteries. The use of a NiMH or NiCad charger or charge mode

will damage the batteries and may cause re and personal injury.

NEVER charge or use a LiPo battery or pack that shows any kind

of damage or deformity. Swelling is a sign of internal damage. If a

battery becomes swollen, deformed, or appears damaged, DO NOT

CHARGE. Follow the disposal instructions below to properly and

safely dispose of the battery.

NEVER allow children under 14 years old to charge batteries

without the supervision of a responsible, knowledgeable adult.

ALWAYS inspect your LiPo batteries carefully before charging. Look

for any loose leads or connectors, damaged wire insulation, dam-

aged cell packaging, impact damage, uid leaks, swelling (a sign of

internal damage), cell deformity, missing labels, or any other damage

or irregularity. If any of the above conditions are observed, DO NOT

CHARGE or use the battery pack. Follow the “BATTERY DISPOSAL

INSTRUCTIONS” included, and safely dispose of the battery.

DO NOT let any exposed battery contacts or wires touch each other.

This will cause the battery to short circuit and create the risk of re.

ALWAYS charge batteries in a ame retardant/re proof container.

Traxxas recommends the use of the Traxxas Battery Charging Bag

that is available separately.

NEVER charge batteries in your model, on wood, cloth, carpet, or on

any other ammable material. Keep a chemical re extinguisher in

nearby in case of re.

DO NOT store or charge LiPo batteries with or around other batteries

or battery packs of any type, including other LiPos.

Store and transport your LiPo batteries in a cool dry place.

DO NOT store in direct sunlight. DO NOT allow the storage

temperature to exceed 140ºF / 60ºC or the cells may be damaged

and a risk of re created.

DO NOT disassemble LiPo cells and charge.

DO NOT attempt to build your own LiPo battery pack from loose cells.

STORE battery packs safely out of the reach of children and pets.

ALWAYS proceed with caution and use good common sense

at all times.

BATTERY CHARGING AND DISCHARGING PRECAUTIONS

Unlike other batteries, charging and discharging LiPo batteries has

a greater risk of re resulting in personal injury and property loss.

Traxxas LiPo Power Cells feature integrated balance wires that

isolate each cell in a pack and charges each cell independently.

This ensures that all cells balance equally and discharge at the

same rate during use.

ONLY use a Traxxas iD-equipped LiPo charger

with all Traxxas LiPo battery packs.

ALWAYS make sure that your charger settings match those listed

on the battery pack label. Incorrect settings will result in battery

damage and create a serious risk of re.

DO NOT leave the charger and battery unattended while charging,

discharging, or anytime the charger is ON. If there are any signs of a

malfunction or in the event of an emergency, unplug the charger from

the power source and disconnect the battery from the charger.

If at any time during the charging or discharging process the

battery begins to balloon or swell, discontinue charging (or dis-

charging) immediately. Quickly and safely disconnect the battery,

then place it in a safe, open area away from ammable materials

to observe it for at least 30 minutes. Continuing to charge or

discharge a battery that has begun to balloon or swell can result in

a re. A battery that has ballooned or swollen even a small amount

must be removed from service completely.

Make sure the charger settings match the battery type and

specications. Refer to the battery label for the proper cell count

and charging amperage setting:

•Battery Chemistry

•Maximum Charge Rate

•Cell Conguration

•Voltage
